They agreed to pose...for lunch. Always hungry--teenage boys. I lined them against the pool because the light was nice. While I was framing and giving directions, I told them to jump up. I didn't mean 'in', I meant 'up'. Fortunately one questioned me and I clarified, as the other five were ready to take the dive.

ttv enlarger contraption
I rebuilt this enlarger contraption and switched out the duaflex to an argus 75, as it fit a bit more snug. The Nikon and Argus are supported by a back brace, which I made to fit and support by existing screw holes and bolts within the existing enlarger whenever possible.
It's rigid and solid and the base is on wheels. The whole unit glides up and down on a track. I've used it successfully for long exposure, flight-light lit still lifes. My plan is to do some portrait shots when I can get the kids or their friends over to model!
This unit isn't portable, it sits in a corner of the basement. The main Nikon camera is removable to use on my main portable ttv contraption.

newborn robins
this robin built her nest so low, I couldn't resist getting the shot which was a challenge at best. I stood on the ladder, contraption in hand. My exposure was tested ahead, I relied on auto focus and shooting blind. Fred held down the branch below and moved the top branch aside. I took a few shots, most of them missing the birds all together, this one capturing them just right.
Two days later I tried the shot again but the third egg was gone, the two little birds doing fine. The robin parents and all their friends making quite a bit of noise until we moved away only seconds later.
